Cure Parkinson's

Parkinson's is a progressive neurological condition - it can be successfully treated with a range of therapies but it is currently incurable. In 2018 around 145,000 people in the UK alone are living with Parkinson’s (1 person in every 350). This is expected to increase by 18% by the year 2025 and is set to almost double by 2065. It is estimated that 1 person in 37 will receive a diagnosis of Parkinson’s during their lifetime.

Cure Parkinson's is a leading Parkinson's medical research charity totally committed to slowing, halting and reversing the condition and ultimately improving the lives of those affected by the disease.

Our Purpose 

Exercise Matters

Exercise makes us happier and healthier. It opens up opportunities and brings communities together. It is essential for our mental and physical wellbeing and has the power to make life with Parkinson’s better for everyone. That's why Sport Parkinson’s is here.

If we can help everyone to exercise more – by enabling people with Parkinson’s to find and enjoy the activities and sports that choose we can play our part in creating:

• A more integrated and resilient Parkinson’s community, actively involved in shaping the opportunities that they want to exercise in.
• A Parkinson’s society where physical activity is the norm – powered by thriving groups and clubs across the country.

Above all we want to create an environment where every person with Parkinson’s has a chance to reach their full potential.
